Today, @james' @Podnews revealed that @AntennaPod the amazing open-source podcast player, just added transcript support! ๐ŸŽ‰

"Version 3.5 of podcast app AntennaPod now displays Podcasting 2.0 transcripts, joining Pocket Casts and Apple Podcasts."

This is a game-changer for accessibility, SEO, discoverability, and the ability to quickly search within an episode.

Huge shout-out to the AntennaPod team, especially Tony Tam, for developing this awesome transcript feature! ๐Ÿ™Œ

Transcripts in podcasts arenโ€™t just about ease of use; they represent the potential of open, collaborative initiatives like Podcasting 2.0 (thank you @adam and @dave!) to uplift an entire industry. ๐ŸŒ

Itโ€™s been an incredible journeyโ€”from the early Podcasting 2.0 dreamers, through dedicated developers who believe in decentralization, to now seeing Apple adopt this specification in Apple Podcasts!

@Castopod Where would you discuss this? Here?

My thoughts were: 1. How to install #plugins with #docker? I like the way #Discourse does it: a list of git clones.
2. I was wondering about changes and deprecation and thought that listing the API and hooks used in the manifest might make it easier to change, evolve and deprecate the plugins in case of future changes.

@Castopod is rolling out a #plugin interface, already documented. This opens up a lot of freedom for users and developers to customize the #podcast platform. Now, you cannot only self-host but small improvements for your use-case do not need to go through the main development process any more. Faster and #decentral development ahead!
Some of the open feature requests are surely a case for plugins!
